Fox renewed Kitchen Nightmares last October in the midst of the show's first season broadcast run. The British import's 10-episode second season will continue to follow sharp-tongued Hell's Kitchen chef Gordon Ramsay as he travels across America and helps restaurants in crisis.

Serving as the lead-in for Kitchen Nightmares in the Wednesdays at 8PM ET/PT time slot this fall will be new episodes of The Moment of Truth, the game show that quizzes contestants about their personal life and uses a lie detector to determine if they're telling the truth.

In addition to Kitchen Nightmares and The Moment of Truth, Fox announced Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?, Don't Forget the Lyrics, Cops and America's Most Wanted: America Fights Back will also air as part of the network's Fall 2008 primetime programming lineup.

Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? will air in the Fridays at 8PM ET/PT time slot beginning August 29 with a special two-hour episode. One-hour episodes of the Mark Burnett-created game show will regularly serve as the lead-in for Don't Forget the Lyrics, which will air Fridays at 9PM ET/PT.

Fox will air back-to-back half-hour episodes of Cops in the Saturdays at 8PM ET/PT time period. It will serve as the lead-in for America's Most Wanted: America Fights Back in the Saturdays at 9PM ET/PT time slot.
